    Review Summary

Many praise the facility for its loving and caring staff, clean and updated environment, and the variety of activities offered. The location is appreciated for its convenience and the outdoor space is described as lovely.

    Some areas for improvement include enhancing the welcoming experience for new residents, adding more community-building activities, and expanding the types of care offered to include assisted living and memory care, as the facility is primarily focused on independent living. The importance of a cohesive community feel is emphasized, with the small size of the facility contributing to a friendly atmosphere where staff, including the concierge, are familiar with residents.

    Residents enjoy a range of amenities, including outdoor concerts, a movie theatre (though usage has been limited due to social distancing requirements), and a gym. The staff is consistently praised for their excellence and responsiveness. However, one current resident expresses dissatisfaction with promised renovations not being carried out and describes the facility's furniture and common areas as outdated and in disrepair.
